Landon's Special Day

Landon doesn't turn three until tomorrow, but Saturday was his special day! Landon and Daddy went to the fire station first thing Saturday morning, (see Right up their Alley). They came home, ate a little lunch, and then the whole family went to Gymboree Play and Music to celebrate with some of Landon's friends. The kids played and ran around, then a teacher stepped in to round up the chaos and sing songs, do a parade, go down the "birthday slide", play parachute and much more. The children all enjoyed a train cookie cake, with Wow Wow Wubbzy driving, before heading on their way. Landon had so much fun...and Mommy was amazed at how well he played with everyone who attended. The only thing he asked for was not to have everyone sing happy birthday to him, he just blew out his candles and that was it!

(see the video for highlights of both)

The day was not over, however. We left from the party to go immediately to church for the Christmas program rehearsal. This was a little much for two tired kids, and Landon was asleep before we made it home. He slept until it was time to go to the Symons' house to celebrate Thanksgiving. We had to rearrange these plans from the week before, but it was just as enjoyable as doing it during Thanksgiving week. We celebrated Scott and Landon's birthdays while there, and had fun watching them both open their presents. A busy day, but so much fun!
